GWAS of thyroid stimulating hormone highlights pleiotropic effects and inverse association with thyroid cancer

Nature Communications, 2020
Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is critical for normal development and metabolism. To better understand the genetic contribution to TSH levels, we conduct a GWAS meta-analysis at 22.4 million genetic markers in up to 119,715 individuals and identify 74

The Molecular Function and Clinical Role of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Receptor in Cancer Cells

Cells, 2020
The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and its cognate receptor (TSHR) are of crucial importance for thyrocytes to proliferate and exert their functions. Although TSHR is predominantly expressed in thyrocytes, several studies have revealed that functional

Alternating Hypothyroidism and Hyperthyroidism in an Adolescent Boy – Do We Always Understand What Drives the Switch?

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2023
Alternating hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism is a rare phenomenon, especially among pediatric patients. It is usually related to simultaneous, unbalanced presence of stimulating and blocking thyroid stimulating hormone receptor antibodies (TRAbs ...

Adipose‐specific inactivation of thyroid stimulating hormone receptors in mice modifies body weight, temperature and gene expression in adipocytes

Physiological Reports, 2020
In obesity, the expression level of thyroid stimulating hormone receptor in adipose tissue is reduced and the levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are often elevated within the normal range.
